A new trailer has been released today for Astral Chain, showcasing the game's main features.

　　The new trailer, which is only available in Japanese as of now, focuses on the main gameplay loop of exploration, investigation and combat. Combat in particular is looking extremely good, with a tons of different options that will allow players to create some flashy and devastating combos.

　　More Astral Chain footage has been shared online earlier this month, showcasing more of the multi-cultural city of Ark, the Legion and more.

　　In the Ark, a multi-cultural city in the near future, disaster strikes when gates to another dimension suddenly appear! Dangerous creatures begin to emerge, attacking the people and polluting the land, and normal police forces are unable to compete with them. To stand up against these threats, a brand new, special police unit known as Neuron is formed.

　　Choose between two playable characters – one male, one female – on your adventure. The character you don’t choose also appears as your younger twin, and a fellow member of Neuron.

　　In order to resist the creatures, in Astral Chain humanity developed a special weapon: the Legion. The Legion acts as your partner, and helps with your investigations. However, it’s in battle where the Legion shows its real ability…

　　Work together with the Legion and use all sorts of combat styles to fight your enemies. You could both attack the same enemy simultaneously, target different opponents, or send your Legion on the offensive while you support it with items. Use this synergetic action system to battle and explore together!

　　Astral Chain launches on August 30th in all regions exclusively on Nintendo Switch.
